Does anyone feel like they can eat anything at 5wks??? I was just sleeved 5wks ago on April 1st n apparently I can eat anything now n I get hungry more often then what I see on here :-( I don't think it's working for me cuz the scale doesn't move but ok my co-workers say they notice it (although they don't know) they think I'm just dieting really good. I'm scared imma be a failure ;-( I had pizza at 4wks it was only half a slice n this past wkend I had another party n I was able to eat a whole slice if I wanted to but I left the crust (they aren't huge slices but still) I see peeps on here eating half a cup of tuna or less n for lunch I have a cup is that normal? Scared n frustrated HELP PLEASE what r ur opinions??? -

Thank you everyone for all the positive feedback I will try to work on my patience although its super hard to be patient lol. But it's true I didn't gain all this weight in a month so I shouldn't expect to lose so much in a month. I did forget to take measurements the day before surgery I love the slow n steady wins the race I will definitely keep that in mind Thank you all for ur support -

Ok I was sleeved on 4/1 n the pic to the left was taken easter sunday the nite before surgery on 3/31 the pic to the right taken today 4/26. But I've only lost 13 lbs post op and I'm kinda disappointed I thought by this time almost 4wks out I'd be at least 25lbs less post op can u guys tell the difference? I'm getting bummed that I haven't lost as much as most peeps on here -

Very thirsty. I can drink more than normal?
emr80 replied to gibson_girl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes I'm getting freaked our too I can have 8oz of water in one gulp noo problem. I was sleeved 4/1 I'm 24 days out -
I have a desk job n work 8-4:30, here's what I've been doing: Breakfast I start shortly after I start work about 8:15-30 and I usually have 6oz of the chobani Greek yogurt it takes me about 45 min to an hr to finish it. Then I have lunch at 11:30 but usually don't start eating till closer to noon so far I'm still on soft food n I'm lazy to prepare so I've been eating tuna n 4 crackers I eat about 2oz of tuna. I like tuna so I'm not tired of it yet. Then about 2or 3pm I have a snack like cottage cheese doubles 100 calories or string cheese. N dinner I have about 2oz of chicken in the can, or lentils, or ground turkey I still haven't gotten tired of soft foods yet I know there r more options but this is what's easier for me

Hi all I'm from Chino but was sleeved at st. Joseph Hospital (right next to CHOC) my surgeon is Dr. Jeffery Johnsrud. I was sleeved on 4/1 my facility was excellent but I've hit stalls that r driving me nuts but although people have noticed Ive lost they don't know I've had surgery, I guess it shows but the scale doesn't -

Laura like I said u r one lucky woman lol but yes fleets would be my choice too. Melody that's great next time ill look into these recommendations first prior to fleets but I'm glad fleets took all of 5min to work but I read its not best to use often I will be using miralax too
